Experts worry people aren't making lifestyle changes to avoid preventable cancers

Each day, 36 people in Singapore are told that they have cancer, marking a worrying rise in the country's top killer.

Cancer cases have jumped by about 17 per cent since 2010, despite certain cancers being preventable if people choose healthier lifestyles and drop bad habits.

The disease remains the top cause of death here, with around one in three dying of it now.
